Newspaper in veggie garden - good or bad?
Comments (8)I'm a printer by trade and all most all printing inks are soy based even color inks. I personally think glossy paper is fine to use, it's all the same ink. It's metallic inks and special inks like laser safe or inks for printing on vinyl label stock that I would worry about. But we're not mulching our gardens with anything printed with those inks as long as your using news print. I've done it and it works great for weed control. I usually put straw on top and it keeps it from blowing away. But now it just use the straw and skip the newspaper. You can till it all under when done....See MoreHAVE: Added a bunch of flower seeds & have lots of veggies

Comments (8)You can get red-leaf basil, such as 'Red Rubin'. Culinary sage comes in the typical silver and variegated as well. Parsley is pretty ornamental in my mind as is rosemary. I usually have a few garlic plants in my flower & shrub beds which I let flower because I love the curly flower stalks. There is a taller kale with red stems and rather frosted looking leaves that I've seen as well as the rosette style kales that folks use for autumn decoration but which can be eaten. Edible podded peas have nice flowers as do scarlet runner beans. Today I'll be planting a cool weather container or two with light green leaf lettuce, pansies, parsley and rosemary....See MoreNW Veggie Gardeners...what's growing in your garden?
